If only we could score runs off Guerrier...

Oh well. Seems like Cleveland has a pretty good insurance policy these days... 5 runs in the 9th is a steep climb. And we're still not out of the top of the inning.

Not bad, Nunez. Now how do we get him in from third, with two outs? Oh, my first big league game was in the kingdome, and i was young enough to wonder why people kept running to first base, then heading back to the dugout. That's about the extent o' my memory... And i would credit the raspberries for last night's rally more than the cake. Anyone want a rally raspberry?

Begs the image of a kleinapple. I bet they are easier to milk. (Don't have any strong tastes on cake. But i do like frosting. It's sweet.) /oops. pineapples got no milk. is that a swing and a miss? or am i thrown out trying to take an extra base?

The bats are back, it would seem.

I think one needs a comb to part one's do... (That said, neither have i done much)

So... We're just short. And platform shoes or high heels won't help, i imagine. I'm hoping for a growth spurt.

Neither let anyone tell ya matter doesn't velocify. Them pitches were pretty quick in the bottom of the 9th. Somehow Escobar squeaked out a infield single to deep short, but that's all. Lot's of strikes goin' by whether or not they was swung at. Anyhow, thanks for the company (even if weren't as talkative as i might be) Hopefully next time we'll come up with the bases clearing double just beyond a fielder's glove instead of them...

I think that's what the "pre" part means. I still need to work dictions, myself. But i neither lose hope for this game, nor for the rest o' the series yet.

Yeay! I kinda took a break during the break. Guess i'm no all-star. Did i miss anything i won't pick up by glancing over a few news articles? I miss improper fractions!

I don't think i can complain about a 5-2 road trip leading into the all-star break. Considering how there were comments regarding the difficulty of the Twins' first half schedule, may i propose a "surgical tubing" version of the rubber band theory? Or do i have to wait to hear how the rotation turns out?

That's humbility! (Too lazy to look up an smrt simpsons clip)

Lookin' pretty good...

Dozier gets a head start on the derby.

For all the bad bounces, he's still hanging in there.

But a lead is a lead, no matter how small!

Escobar!

Good point 'bout no DH. Creates a log jam at the positions he plays. I'm sure Mr. Colabello will be hitting the pinches later in the game.

Oh well. Comebacks are always long shots... Thanks all! Last evenin' game 'til after the all star. I don't think it will help the twins much, but i just remembered: paper covers rock.

Orange temp fencing is gauche. How many bolts of fabric would it take to curtain it tastefully? Can we watch from the fenced off portion? Perhaps serve tea and scones?

Must score more runs than outs... All or nothin' time?

Once more onto the base paths...

I think quarantine is the only answer... Too many strands...

To his credit, Johnson hasn't issued any walks yet. He's been relying on his defense. Alas, Molitor can't shift a player into the stands... At least the dog will enjoy the game!

Yes. Though in theory, being professionals, baseball players have character... Glad to see Johnson only give up 1 run in the second.
